3 0
Astronomers from areas in the northern latitudes developed different constellations and maps of the sky than their southern counterparts, as faint stars weren't visible to them. In the 18th and 19th centuries, there weren't constellations in the southern hemispheres, so astronomers, instead, invented them.

krek1111 [17]

The correct answers are:

A. China imports oil and natural gas because it cannot meet demands with its own supplies;

China is country that has an ever growing economy, and that means that the demand for natural resources is also growing constantly. Because China doesn't have enough oil and natural gas, it imports huge quantities of it, mainly from Russia, in order to satisfy the demand.

C. Taiwan imports wood products because many of its forests are protected lands;

Taiwan is a relatively small island. It has a very large population though, which over the years meant that big portion of the forests were destroyed, and the wood reserves became very limited. Also, the forests were all protected sot hat they are not destroyed. Because of this, Taiwan is importing wood products on a large scale from the other countries, mostly from the nations of Southeast Asia.
